Elegant framed pair of white classical angel relief roundels titled “Morning and Night,” after the original works by Danish neoclassical sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen (1768–1844). Mounted on a soft blue marbled background within a gold-tone frame, this 11” x 18.5” presentation creates a refined neoclassical wall accent.
Detailed Description:
This framed decorative artwork features two circular white bas-relief plaques depicting allegorical angel scenes based on Thorvaldsen’s famous compositions:
-
“Morning” – An angel holding a small torch with scattered blossoms
-
“Night” – An angel cradling two sleeping infants
A printed backing label confirms the identification:
“Morning and Night: Angel Roundels by Bertel Thorvaldsen (1768–1844)…
The originals are in the Thorvaldsen Museum in Copenhagen.”
